Beck, Jr. Director Caption:Motion to approve terminating the employment agreement with Mr. Richard Hatfield, Newman Tennis Center Manager, and to create and place Mr. Hatfield in an authorized position of Tennis Program Supervisor, grade 49, at an annual salary of $45,743. Background:Mr. Hatfield has worked under an employment agreement since 1997 as Manager of Newman Tennis Center. This agreement included a base salary, payment for teaching lessons, restringing tennis rackets and managing tournaments with 64 players or more. The total compensation for 2006 for Mr. Hatfield under this agreement will total $46,208. The agreement renewal date is September 2, 2006. The Commission gave strong indication earlier this year that they desired to have this agreement terminated and to create a regular position for these duties. In addition, this position will have added duties to coordinate citywide tennis activities for the department. Analysis:This action will enable the successful operation at Newman Tennis Center to continue, while also coordinating and enhancing other tennis programs throughout the Augusta park system. There is a potential negative impact of the manager being away from work during the week after working additional hours for weekend tournaments as a regular employee, as compared to being compensated additional payments under the employment agreement and being at work. This could result in a shortage of staff on those particular days. Financial Impact:This action should produce a slight savings as compared to the employment agreement. Alternatives:1.
